More Than Words Can Ever Explain

I never expected someone like you to come into my life and completely change the way I see love. Before you, I convinced myself that love wasn't meant for me anymore. After all the disappointments and heartbreaks, I learned how to guard my heart and expect less from people. Then you came along, and everything changed. You brought back the happiness I thought I had lost. You made me smile on days when I didn't even feel like smiling. Your love gave me comfort, your presence gave me peace, and your heart became the safest place I've ever known. With you, I don't have to pretend to be strong all the time. You make me feel loved, valued, and understood in ways I never imagined possible. You see me at my best and at my worst, yet you still choose me every single day. Salamat sa pagmamahal na totoo, sa pag-aalaga, at sa pagiging bahagi ng buhay ko. Thank you for showing me that love can still be gentle, patient, and real.

Saying “I’m sorry” has no feel of sincerity on it. Actually, it asks for nothing and there is no feeling of atonement or acceptance of fault. On the other hand, saying ...

What you eat is who you are

Have you heard the phrase “You are what you eat”? It’s kinda weird but come to think of it, it’s really true. What you eat defines your personality. What you eat affects your mood, looks and health. Every food you take is important. So better choose the healthy ones. I’m a fan of organic food! I guess this is the type of food that best describes me. NO GMOs and pesticides, and surely healthy. Just like me simple, natural and private (hehehe). If you have a space for a garden, learn to plant veggies and fruits using natural fertilizers. I encourage everyone to start consuming organic foods and to know the benefits it can give. How your food is grown is important to your health. Have you ever notice a person after going to a healthy diet course looks differently from before? If she looked dry and uncomfortable last time, she becomes blooming and more energetic. Then you’ll probably tell her, “You lose weight, Oh you look great!” or sometimes “You gain weight, you look so much ...
